The new nations of the world hold many expectations for their education systems. They expect that schools will produce the labour force for their manpower requirements, the leadership for their bureaucracies, and the citizenry for an enlightened social order. In pluralistic countries, governments expect also that schools will assist in integrating sub-populations fragmented by religious, linguistic, or ethnic differences. This article will examine the theme, ‘education and national integration’, in Nigeria, whose federal form of government was erected in recognition of profound cultural disparities.

Science and higher education have always been intensely internationalized areas of human activity. Especially in the era of globalization, higher education systems around the world face the challenge of internationalization. Internationalization not only strengthens opportunities for development, but is seen as an inevitable necessity in the globalizing and strongly competitive world. Although there is a long-standing tradition of academic cooperation between Poland and Mexico, the changing reality enforces increased efforts to build a more conscious, comprehensive relationship with measurable, long-lasting results. Since ad hoc contacts between individual researchers are not sufficient any longer, a complex, realistic vision of such cooperation is needed. Universities in Poland and Mexico start to see the opportunity to intensify cooperation, which – effectively explored – can significantly contribute to a nation’s economic competitiveness in general and to understanding the nature of trends and challenges in international higher education. The author discusses current activities within the framework of academic cooperation between the two countries and the most important initiatives that may bring closer cooperation in the future. A special focus will be put on the challenges faced by both countries in higher education cooperation schemes, as seen from the Polish perspective.

ResumenEn el desarrollo del presente texto se muestra una reflexión sobre la in-fluencia que ejercen los espacios y la cultura Maker en la educación. En este sen-tido, la educación se convierte en el vínculo de transmisión de culturas y la escuela se presenta como un lugar privilegiado para el desarrollo de aprendizajes y rela-ciones en espacios de gran diversidad que den respuesta a las demandas sociales. Las nuevas generaciones se forman en un contexto educativo que da mucha im-portancia a las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación, las cuales trans-miten nuevos valores de colaboración y respeto, a través del diseño de nuevos espacios de aprendizaje e intercambio de experiencias. En este sentido, la escuela puede servir para compensar desigualdades y adquirir nuevos conocimientos com-partidos con personas de todo el mundo, favoreciendo entornos de interacción entre los diferentes sistemas sociales, culturales y educativos.AbstractIn the development of this text reflects on the influence spaces and Maker culture in education.
